[[File:Schrodingers cat.svg|thumb|upright=1.5|Schrödinger's cat: a cat, a flask of poison, and a [[radioactive]] source are placed in a sealed box. If an internal monitor (e.g. [[Geiger counter]]) detects radioactivity (i.e. a single atom decaying), the flask is shattered, releasing the poison, which kills the cat. The Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics implies that after a while, the cat is ''simultaneously'' alive ''and'' dead.

The prevailing theory, called the [[Copenhagen interpretation]], says that a quantum system remains in superposition until it interacts with, or is observed by the external world. When this happens, the superposition collapses into one or another of the possible definite states. The EPR experiment shows that a system with multiple particles separated by large distances can be in such a superposition. Schrödinger and [[Albert Einstein|Einstein]] exchanged letters about [[EPR paradox|Einstein's EPR article]], in the course of which Einstein pointed out that the  state of an [[Instability|unstable]] keg of [[gunpowder]] will, after a while, contain a superposition of both exploded and unexploded states.

当时的主流理论是哥本哈根诠释,它认为一个量子系统在与外部世界相互作用或被外部世界观察到之前,一直处于叠加状态。这时,叠加态会坍缩成一种或另一种定态。EPR实验表明,包含多个相距较远的粒子的系统可以处于这种叠加状态。薛定谔和爱因斯坦就后者的EPR佯谬论文通信,在信中,爱因斯坦指出,一个不稳定的火药桶会在一段时间后包含爆炸状态和未爆炸状态的叠加。

To further illustrate, Schrödinger described how one could, in principle, create a superposition in a large-scale system by making it dependent on a quantum particle that was in a superposition.  He proposed a scenario with a cat in a locked steel chamber, wherein the cat's life or death depended on the state of a [[Radioactive decay|radioactive]] atom, whether it had decayed and emitted radiation or not. According to Schrödinger, the Copenhagen interpretation implies that ''the cat remains both alive and dead'' until the state has been observed. Schrödinger did not wish to promote the idea of dead-and-alive cats as a serious possibility; on the contrary, he intended the example to illustrate the absurdity of the existing view of quantum mechanics.<ref name="Schrodinger1935"/>

One can even set up quite ridiculous cases. A cat is penned up in a steel chamber, along with the following device (which must be secured against direct interference by the cat): in a Geiger counter, there is a tiny bit of radioactive substance, so small, that perhaps in the course of the hour one of the atoms decays, but also, with equal probability, perhaps none; if it happens, the counter tube discharges and through a relay releases a hammer that shatters a small flask of hydrocyanic acid. If one has left this entire system to itself for an hour, one would say that the cat still lives if meanwhile no atom has decayed. The first atomic decay would have poisoned it. The psi-function of the entire system would express this by having in it the living and dead cat (pardon the expression) mixed or smeared out in equal parts.

Schrödinger's famous [[thought experiment]] poses the question, "''when'' does a quantum system stop existing as a superposition of states and become one or the other?"  (More technically, when does the actual quantum state stop being a non-trivial [[linear combination]] of states, each of which resembles different classical states, and instead begin to have a unique classical description?) If the cat survives, it remembers only being alive. But explanations of the EPR experiments that are consistent with standard microscopic quantum mechanics require that macroscopic objects, such as cats and notebooks, do not always have unique classical descriptions. The thought experiment illustrates this apparent paradox. Our intuition says that no observer can be in a mixture of states—yet the cat, it seems from the thought experiment, can be such a mixture. Is the cat required to be an observer, or does its existence in a single well-defined classical state require another external observer? Each alternative seemed absurd to Einstein, who was impressed by the ability of the thought experiment to highlight these issues. In a letter to Schrödinger dated 1950, he wrote:

Note that the charge of gunpowder is not mentioned in Schrödinger's setup, which uses a Geiger counter as an amplifier and hydrocyanic poison instead of gunpowder. The gunpowder had been mentioned in Einstein's original suggestion to Schrödinger 15 years before, and Einstein carried it forward to the present discussion.

量子力学的主流诠释之一是哥本哈根诠释<ref name="Wimmel1992" />。该诠释认为,一个系统在观察时将不再处于叠加态,而是坍缩为叠加态中的任意一种状态。薛定谔的思维实验清楚地表明,哥本哈根诠释没有明确定义测量和观察的本质。实验可以解释为,盒子关闭时,系统处于“衰变的原子核/死猫”和“未衰变的原子核/活猫”叠加态中,只有打开盒子进行观察时,波函数才会坍缩成这两种状态之一。

In 1957, [[Hugh Everett]] formulated the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, which does not single out observation as a special process. In the many-worlds interpretation, both alive and dead states of the cat persist after the box is opened, but are [[quantum decoherence|decoherent]] from each other. In other words, when the box is opened, the observer and the possibly-dead cat split into an observer looking at a box with a dead cat, and an observer looking at a box with a live cat. But since the dead and alive states are decoherent, there is no effective communication or interaction between them.

1957年,休·埃弗莱特提出了量子力学的多世界诠释,该诠释并不把观察视为一个特殊过程。在多世界诠释中,盒子打开后,活猫和死猫仍然存在,但彼此之间是退相干的。换句话说,盒子被打开时,观察者和可能死亡的猫分裂成两个分支:观察者看着盒中的死猫,观察者看着盒中的活猫。但由于死态和活态是退相干的,它们之间无法发生有效的交流或相互作用。

When opening the box, the observer becomes entangled with the cat, so "observer states" corresponding to the cat's being alive and dead are formed; each observer state is [[quantum entanglement|entangled or linked]] with the cat so that the "observation of the cat's state" and the "cat's state" correspond with each other.  Quantum decoherence ensures that the different outcomes have no interaction with each other.

In the [[transactional interpretation]] the apparatus emits an advanced wave backward in time, which combined with the wave that the source emits forward in time, forms a standing wave.  The waves are seen as physically real, and the apparatus is considered an "observer".  In the transactional interpretation, the collapse of the wavefunction is "atemporal" and occurs along the whole transaction between the source and the apparatus.  The cat is never in superposition.  Rather the cat is only in one state at any particular time, regardless of when the human experimenter looks in the box.  The transactional interpretation resolves this quantum paradox.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Cramer|first=John G.|url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/280926546|title=The transactional interpretation of quantum mechanics|publisher=Reviews of Modern Physics|date=July 1986|isbn=|volume=58|location=|pages=647–685}}</ref>

According to [[objective collapse theories]], superpositions are destroyed spontaneously (irrespective of external observation), when some objective physical threshold (of time, mass, temperature, [[irreversibility]], etc.) is reached. Thus, the cat would be expected to have settled into a definite state long before the box is opened. This could loosely be phrased as "the cat observes itself", or "the environment observes the cat".

Wigner's friend is a variant on the experiment with two human observers: the first makes an observation on whether a flash of light is seen and then communicates his observation to a second observer. The issue here is, does the wave function "collapse" when the first observer looks at the experiment, or only when the second observer is informed of the first observer's observations?
      
“维格纳的朋友”是薛定谔实验的一个变体。实验中有两个人类观察者:第一个观察者通过观察确定是否看到闪光,然后将观察结果传递给第二个观察者。问题是,波函数究竟何时“坍缩”?是在第一个观察者进行观察时,还是只有当第二个观察者知道了第一个观察者的观察结果时?
